Year 9 Memoir Collection: 9 Lives

This year, Creatives Arts Victoria funded YA author, Nova Weetman, and the writer of Good Weekend's Kitchen Sink Drama, Paul Connolly, to work with our Year 9 cohort. 

The two authors worked with each Year 9 class to guide students through the writing of a short memoir, gave extensive feedback in the editing process, then laid out and printed our beautiful collection, 9 Lives. 

This gorgeous book, with the cover designed by Jane L (9G3), will be launched in the beginning of December with great fanfare and each of the participants will receive their own copy. Whilst this may be the first time that most of them were published, we hope that seeing their own names in print will ensure that it's not the last!
